Margin Requirements

ROLLOVER

Energy products like oil and gas expire, so rollover does not apply. Gold and silver, however, are spot products, so rollover applies if you hold your position past 5:00 PM ET.

Trading Hours

With FXCM’s energy products, your trading hours are based on the underlying market—just like your prices. You can open and close trades during the week, before the weekend closing. FXCM’s metal products trade 24 hours a day, five days a week, with a one-hour break each day.

Expiration

Oil and gas contracts expire monthly, typically a day before the underlying market contracts expire. This means you want to manage your positions before the contract expires. Copper is the only metal with an expiration date, typically the day before the underlying market’s expiration.

Demo Account: Although demo accounts attempt to replicate real markets, they operate in a simulated market environment. As such, there are key differences that distinguish them from real accounts; including but not limited to, the lack of dependence on real-time market liquidity, a delay in pricing, and the availability of some products which may not be tradable on live accounts. The operational capabilities when executing orders in a demo environment may result in atypically, expedited transactions; lack of rejected orders; and/or the absence of slippage. There may be instances where margin requirements differ from those of live accounts as updates to demo accounts may not always coincide with those of real accounts.

Risk Warning: Our service includes products that are traded on margin and carry a risk of losses in excess of your deposited funds. The products may not be suitable for all investors. Please ensure that you fully understand the risks involved.
